Chapter 26: The Emperor Without Heirs vs. the Stunning Concubine



When Gu Qingqing heard this, she felt like she was struck by lightning and looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.

"What, what do you mean?" Gu Qingqing asked with trembling lips, tears rolling down her face instantly, wetting it.

Sun Chongming grabbed Gu Qingqing's shoulders, his eyes full of hurt.

"Qingqing, Yunniang and Qiaoniang are both pregnant. Don't beat them anymore." Sun Chongming coaxed her softly.

If Gu Qingqing could have lied to herself and said she didn't hear him clearly, then now she really wished she was deaf.

"What did you say? They are both pregnant?" Gu Qingqing's body swayed and she fell on the embroidery stool.

"Yes, I told you, even if they give birth to a child, you will raise it. You don't have to make things difficult for them." Sun Chongming sighed, knowing that this might be a little difficult to accept at the moment.

Gu Qingqing only felt a buzzing in her ears. She looked at the man's lips opening and closing in front of her, her eyes a little dull.

Seeing that she ignored him, Sun Chongming closed his eyes and turned away.

"Sister, do you like the gift I gave you?" Gu Wanying looked at the distraught Gu Qingqing with a half-smile.

When Gu Wanying saw her suddenly turn around and look at her, she smiled sarcastically and the depression in her heart gradually dissipated.

She knew that the original owner had obtained the desired result and had truly left.

It’s better this way, I don’t have to bother myself with someone who is not worth it.

Today was a good day, and Minister Sun was busy receiving guests. He was very unhappy to see the servants running around in the backyard in a rude manner, but he did not dare to show it in front of the emperor.

Not long after Gu Wanying arrived, the emperor made a secret visit, and the entire Sun family was flattered.

Minister Sun almost thought that the emperor came to attend the wedding and was so happy that he couldn't control himself. This must be a great honor for his ancestors.

But the emperor was obviously here to pick up Gu Wanying. Faced with the group of grown men led by Minister Sun, he felt a little impatient, but he couldn't just rush to the backyard to pick them up, so he had to sit in the hall and wait.

With the emperor like a big Buddha present, everyone present was very reserved and did not dare to speak too loudly for fear of upsetting the emperor.

So the wedding banquet turned into a court symposium.

Just at this moment, someone came from the backyard and said he wanted to see a doctor.

The emperor had no time to ask and preconceived that something had happened to Gu Wanying.

He walked to the backyard in two steps, leaving Eunuch Feng far behind. Minister Sun was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. He followed the emperor anxiously to look for him.

But no matter how many nice things he said, the emperor still had a gloomy face and refused to even look at him.

"Yingying! Are you hurt?" The emperor asked in a deep voice as he stood at the door of the bridal chamber.

As the king of a country, he actually lost his composure at this time, broke into the minister's backyard without regard for etiquette, and even almost offended the minister's wife. This scene shocked the officials so much that they were stunned and dared not breathe.

Minister Sun, who was accompanying him, was sweating profusely.

Gu Wanying did not expect that the emperor would come to someone else's backyard to look for her, so she quickly opened the door and walked out.

Only when he saw Gu Wanying standing before him in one piece did the emperor's heart gradually calm down.

The smile in her eyes was gentle and bright, and when she looked at him, she was filled with infinite tenderness, like the spring breeze and the bright moon, which made people fall in love.

The emperor looked at her, and as if he had thought of something, he suddenly picked her up by the waist.

Gu Wanying was startled by this sudden princess hug and subconsciously hooked her arms around the emperor's neck.

"Your Majesty!" she exclaimed, her face flushed. "Put me down quickly, I'm fine! We're still outside!"

"It's okay, I don't think they dare to say anything nonsense!" The emperor only had Gu Wanying in his eyes, and his words were a blow to everyone present!

Minister Sun's sweat was soaking his clothes, and he lowered his head, not daring to look. A group of people knelt around him, their heads pressed to the ground, wishing they were blind.

Gu Qingqing was even more stunned by this scene. She watched the emperor holding Gu Wanying and leaving step by step, and suddenly envy arose in her heart.

Comparing Sun Chongming with the emperor, her heart was instantly broken.

"Ha, ha ha ha ha." Gu Qingqing laughed sadly. She tore off the tablecloth, knocked over all the plates and bowls, and madly smashed everything that could be broken in the house.

Xiao Cui on the side cried and tried to persuade her, but it was of no use and she was even slapped twice.

The whole new house was in a mess.

However, Gu Wanying had no time to care about Gu Qingqing. She was carried out by the emperor in a very open manner, and her whole body curled up like a cooked shrimp.

Better to cover your face.

This is so embarrassing!

If there were the Internet in this dynasty, she would definitely be on the front page of the news tomorrow, and a negative one at that!

"Your Majesty, please let me down. I can walk by myself." Gu Wanying pleaded in a low voice.

"No, I'm worried." Once this man gets stubborn, even ten oxen can't pull him back.

Gu Wanying's soft voice sounded extremely pleasant to the emperor. He just wanted to return to the palace as soon as possible and listen to it all by himself.

Wherever the two men passed, all the ministers lowered their heads, for fear of seeing something they shouldn't see.

Gu Wanying had only seen the scene of huge crowds of people with their heads bowed during holidays at West Lake.

I didn’t expect that after she came through, she could actually see such a grand occasion. It’s really magical.

There is no wall that is impenetrable. The news that the emperor personally came to the Sun Mansion to attend the banquet, the emperor carried Concubine Wan out of the Sun Mansion in public, and the emperor came to the Sun Mansion for Concubine Wan, spread throughout Shangjing overnight like wings.

This event immediately overshadowed the wedding banquet at the Sun Mansion.

However, the servants in the Sun Mansion were saying that Sun Chongming, the young master of the Sun family, had left his wife behind on his wedding night to take care of the injured concubine all night, and the news spread like wildfire.

One can imagine how embarrassed Gu Qingqing was.

She sat in her new house all night, but Sun Chongming didn't show up.

But the next morning, the nanny urged her to dress up and serve tea to her parents-in-law.

Even three layers of powder couldn't cover up the dark circles under her eyes, and the nanny couldn't help but click her lips.

The newly married young lady went to the hall alone to offer tea to her parents-in-law. Her back looked so lonely that the servants couldn't help but feel a little pity for her.

When she was still some distance away from the hall, she heard laughter coming from inside. She paused and looked a little unhappy.

"You are going to be a father, so you have to be more steady." Mother Sun's voice fell into Gu Qingqing's ears with joy.

"I will. Qiaoniang is obedient, Yunniang is quiet, and Qingqing is lively. The three of them will definitely be filial to their father and mother." Sun Chongming paused when he mentioned Gu Qingqing, obviously not knowing what words to use to describe Gu Qingqing.
